Smart Solutions For Tackling Tender Topics

Need help tackling tender Topics?

Are you a youth-serving organization with employees who need help strengthening their skills in speaking to youth about puberty, gender, orientation, sexual behavior, and relationships?

I bring decades years of experience helping adults communicate clearly and sincerely with developmentally appropriate language, while respecting boundaries.

Are you a parent overwhelmed by all that kids and teens are exposed to and wondering how to have heart to heart conversations with your child or teen?

I help parents focus on what’s most important, and how to say what you need to say in clear, compassionate, age-appropriate ways.

Services

Do you serve youth and/or parents? Do your employees and volunteers hear about issues like relationships, sexuality, and more every day? Are your employees and volunteers unsure how to handle them? I can help!

For parents

Don’t you want your children to hear about life’s most tender topics from you? Research shows youth want to hear about growing up, relationships, and sexuality from their parents, but many parents struggle with what to say when and how to say it. I can help!

About Amy Johnson - Diligent Joy

I help parents and professionals find smart solutions for what to say, when to say it, and how to say it clearly and compassionately.

I believe youth deserve adults who are approachable and able to give trustworthy answers.  Youth who have trusted adults to go to make better decisions and have better health outcomes than those who do not.  Contact me to find out more about how we can work together.
